Thank you
The crystal ball was on the fritz

Yes but ... the 'many hearts will be broken' is accompanied by a huge grin suggesting that not that many hearts will be broken. So for me it's either Anton or Kevin because neither are popular on this forum where the poster made this comment. In the poster's second comment they suggest reading their post of a few weeks ago carefully and bearing in mind that things change because we are dealing with humans. So to me someone mentioned in that post is the male leaving. I know Gleb was mentioned and Giovanni but so was Kevin and a side mention of Anton and Brendan.

All this rationale to save me (and you) the angst that Gleb's gone ...

Yes I noticed the grin emoji, and think it's most likely to be Anton going. There's been talk of a lot of changes this season, a big shake up I think Tess said - wasn't hip hop and contemporary mentioned? A stretch too far for Anton. I think Katie was his swan song, and that they'll give him a presenting role of some sort, maybe lining him up to replace Len when he decides to go?

From Twitter, Gleb's had some hip hop lessons recently, don't think it's him. And I hope it's not my favourite Pasha - he's said in interviews during his tour that he's hoping to be asked back this year. And I can't see them splitting up the Clifton clan.

Hope this info from backstageone means at least that we'll hear the pro line up sometime soon!

That's how is read it as well. I think Kevin is very popular in the real world though, certianly my mum and aunties all love him

The cryptic clue about celebrities and egos is VERY interesting. Has someone had a difficult celebrity and it's put them off?

It won't be Gleb. He's just signed up for Celebrity Masterchef - if anything, I'd say the BBC are trying to raise his profile ahead of next series.

I'd rather it wasn't Kevin as I like him and find him an interesting choreographer as well as great dancer/partner to celebs.

Re-celebs and their egos, well Brendan's the first name that comes to me as the pro with big ego celebs. I doubt Kirsty was an easy partner ...

Brendan must have had the patience of a saint to put up with Lulu as well.

I quite like Gleb he brings something a bit different and is very popular. Not sure about some of his moves but it provided a bit of interest.

have you been PMed any information?

Sorry but I dont believe it now it's Tristan

I thought I recalled after 6 months and 1 day you are required to pay tax as a citizen of the Uk,
so with MasterChef , SCD and maybe a tour to me that would take Gleb above that threshold would not be surprised in the least if it was him

I'm guessing you haven't been sent any clues or anything? if you have can you send me them? PM me them?

The tax year finishes in April doenst it? So we're now in a new year. That does explain why they've not moved to the UK permanently though.

According to Wikipedia these are season 14 pros:

Aljaz
Anton
Anya
Brendan
Giovanni
Gleb
Iveta
Janette
Joanne
Karen
Kevin
Natalie
Oti
Pasha
Robin

and

Trent.

It's not is it

Isn't Iveta pregnant.

Wikipedia isn't a good source, but I don't see a list for series 14 anyway

That's seven females and nine males so I highly doubt that is the final line up.

Apparently so.

Funny, but not quite there.

That list got me thinking, it is actually really good and off only by 5 pros, so you you can go ahead and take Anya, Ivetta, tristan and Robin out, take the shocker pro as well, then add three more new girls and two new guys, and you are there.

So Trent is coming back then?

Well actually I didn't take to him so much first time around, but Id happily see him given a second chance.

Presumably if Trent is correct on that list, then it's not 2 other guys to be added but just 1.

Do you know when it will be announced?

Do you mean take out Trent rather than Tristan, as Tristan isn't on that list?
